Ochs (1979) In the article “Transcription as Theory”, Ochs talks about the art of transcription and how the choices the analyst makes in transcribing affect the ways in which the reader will think about the data. First, explain how the analyst can possibly influence how a reader interprets the data in a study if we know that the goal of transcription is to provide as faithful and accurate picture of the original data as possible. Second, discuss how issues of culture and accent may come into play and complicate the transcription process?
